Hearing that revives dont refund tickets completely sours me on conquest. I cant play it anymore. It was enough that ticket bleed was dead, but this just sucks
And I cant olay operations knowing its lopsided for defenders.
Really disappointing that so many people took the Conquest changes lying down. I feel like our voice is scattered about it

This is dumb. The medals are dumb. The progression system is dumb.
Such a shame that a good game has a few small instances of bad game design, and that this annoys the over-all experience as much as it does.

Wow. Did they not have any test team go through this experience and say how crappy it was?
People didn't. It's just that DICE is gonna DICE. And really, I don't notice anything they "changed" in that mode.

Yea, but I'm glad they made sure the gameplay itself was locked up. Those other things can be tweaked before the population starts to suffer for it. If the focus was the other way around there'd be trouble.
Nope, if you're using the boats you can sit really far away and drop them. You'll get the usual XP popup if you hit, but try to go for the sections that aren't on fire for more damage.
On PS4 you must hammer that Triangle button, you have a paltry 10 seconds too.

No, probably just people getting used to the flow of the game and those that haven't have moved on already.
The mobile app.
Not in-game atm. You can do it in the companion app and battlefield.com.

What map does the ship behemoth come on?
True true. I was mostly playing with friends or others here from neogaf, and the last few days I've been attempting to play with randoms. That isn't helping much either

Holy. Fucking. Shit.
I just had an incredible game of Operations on Blitz. Got 98 kills and around 16 deaths. Went 53-0 with the tank for the first couple bases, circling around B in the main square while the enemy team tried their best to take me down (auto-repair is so useful, saved my ass many times), then piloted the zeppelin for the first time and got tons of kills and caps, then there was a final battle at the last base...we lost, but it was so epic that I didn't even mind.
I was streaming the whole thing, an hour and a half of footage...yet when I view it back on YT it's only saved 38 minutes? Wtf?!

*sees dead ally as a medic*
*rushes to revive him, clicks left on the dpad to have my needle come out*
*gas mask comes on*
jesus christ, has this been happening to anyone else? it's insanely annoying. I'm not even pressing up on the dpad, I don't know why the mask comes up like 50% of the time

When's DICE going to address some of the minor annoyances that we're having with the UI and customization options?

I'm assuming another bad design they didn't think about was how awful it is to hold a button after death to change my class or am I doing something wrong here?
Thanks for letting me know, I'll try to catch it next time since lately I've said screw it and turned off the application on my PS4 and then loaded the game up again.

Empire's Edge and Fao Fortress.
Since 75% of the people who play BF barely play the objectives, issue/follow Squad Orders, drop ammo/health, it's not really surprising that they're not upset that Conquest has been butchered.
I reported the same thing on here a few days ago and someone said my D-pad must be broken. It happens to me on 2 of my DS4s, and it happens pretty often, especially when going for the revive needle.

That's nothing: if you want to see a close finish, check this out (watch the tickets!):

Gasser slow at close range? Try hip firing it, it's automatic fire when hip fired. Has really good long range (for a sidearm) stopping power too if you pace your shots. I love that thing.

Finally managed to destroy a dreadnought with the bomber. I turned around knowing it had it's AA guns trained on me and just about managed to let my bombs off before it got me, giving me 4 satisfying kills from the water grave.

What are the UI issues most people seem to be having? I think it's very solid overall on PC, but I do hate not being able to customize outside matches and how you can't leave servers if a map is loading. No excuse for those two things IMO.

For those still looking for support weapons. The telescopic BAR may be one of the best guns in the game. It dominates up close and mid-range, has a fast reload, and if you get the bipod down, it's a laser beam. I am constantly counter sniping with it.

Wtf is with the rubber-banding while flying planes? It doesn't happen on foot, but the moment I pilot a vehicle I'm skipping all over the place. Makes it incredibly annoying when I'm trying to line up the main gun.
Yeah it happen to me randomly.

Good. Support needs a buff.

I can always find one, but I can never find a match that isn't in it's last ten minutes.
I'll ask this question here and maybe someone will feel the same way as I do. This is a minor complaint thats been bothering my OCD since the beginning.
But does anyone feel the menu font isn't scaled properly? I'm playing at 1080p on my 27inches monitor and the menu/font really feel huge, upscaled and not sharp at all. I feel it's 720p or I feel it's using Windows internal scaling to 150%

Jesus, why is Operations so fucking LOOOONG
I will never play the second map of each operation. By the time one is done, I'm spent.
Also, is it really fair to give the attackers a zepplin on the final sector? I mean, come on now.
Also, just mix and match the operations maps. It was fun in the beginning, but now its just annoying. And stop putting me on the fucking defending team 99% of the time. What the hell.

After playing a ton more games, I've reaffirmed my belief that this game is my least favorite BF.
Spotting is horrible. Would like better icons for what it is I spot too. I'm not sure about the bullet drop in this game either. Something feels off, especially on sniper rifles. I've had shots that rise above my sights. Have a head shot lined up, but nope, shot goes a foot over their head :/
Game feels a lot more twitchy to me now. I went back to BF4, and man, it feels so much better, especially weapon feel.

Isn't there a portion of the campaign dedicated to flying? Could try it out there.

Flight controls in the campaign are gimped so it's not really representative of what you're able to do with the planes in multiplayer.

Campaign flying is like battlefront, terrible.
Wish they still had the test range like in 4.
